Send Preview Emails: Test & Optimize Before Sending
Want to make sure your emails look perfect before sending? Sending preview emails in KlickTipp helps you test formatting, check links, and improve deliverability. Testing before sending is essential to ensure emails display correctly and work as intended.
KlickTipp offers two ways to test emails. You can send test emails directly from the email editor. Or, use the MECE view within a campaign to review messages before sending.
This guide walks you through both options step by step. You’ll also learn how to set up test contacts for more accurate results. With preview emails, you can ensure your emails are fully optimized before reaching your audience.
Send Preview Emails from the Email Editor
Whenever you save an email or release it in the drag & drop editor, you have the option of sending a preview email to any email address.
- Simply enter an email address in the corresponding field and click on the send button. The preview email will then be sent to this address.
- At the same time, if this address does not already exist, it will be entered under → Contacts and marked with an automatic tag
Good to Know
Since the contact is added under → Contacts, you can not only check if all content is displayed correctly, but also test placeholders and conditions by adding the appropriate tags.
Please note that a countdown created in KlickTipp always displays the default value of two minutes in a preview email. The value actually set in the email is therefore ignored.
- Alternatively, you can also define a corresponding tag under → My Account → Settings → User Account at the bottom of the page.
- You can rename the tag at any time under → Automation → Tags.
Send Preview Emails via the MECE View
- You can access the MECE view of a campaign by clicking on the envelope button at the top right of the campaign.
- To send a preview email of one or all campaign emails to a specific email address, click on one of the two envelope buttons here too.
- If you have not yet assigned a tag for preview emails and therefore have not yet authorized a contact to receive preview emails, a message will appear.
- Click on the link behind → here.
- You will be taken to the personal information of your user account, where you can assign a tag for test contacts at the bottom of the page.
- Then click on → Save.
- Select → Manage Contacts → Add Contacts and create a test contact with your selected tag for test addresses.
- Open the campaign again in the MECE view and click on one of the envelope buttons. Now you can select the test email address you created to send the preview email.
- Go to → Send Preview email to send the email.
